Alonso: Winning WEC title more important than second Le Mans victory

Alonso is chasing his third FIA world championship win with Toyota this year, leading by 14 points ahead of Saturday's 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps.

Fernando Alonso says claiming a maiden world championship in sports car racing is his priority with Toyota in the next six weeks, prioritising it over a second win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Two-time Formula 1 world champion Alonso sits at the top of the FIA World Endurance Championship drivers’ standings ahead of Saturday’s 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, jointly sharing the lead with co-drivers Kazuki Nakajima and Sebastien Buemi.
